Edited from my July 16, 2022 (1:38 pm) comment:

The Watonga Drive-In opened its gates on October 7, 1952 with Ralph Meeker in “Somebody Loves Me” (unknown if extras added) and was first managed by H.L. Boehm. It was still open in the late-1970s.

A closer address is 80958 N 2590 Rd, Watonga, OK.

Google Maps has updated their addresses and this puts it right on the property.

Another address that works (at least for Google) is 360 Leasa St, Watonga, OK. Today, the drive-in is private property, but you can still clearly see the ramps. http://tinyurl.com/jjlt8w3
